Scholarships

Since the day he insisted that Eddie Lowery carry his bag in the 1913 U.S. Open, Francis Ouimet was known for his interest in helping young people. The Ouimet Fund has continued that legacy proudly for over 65 years.

Since 1949, The Fund has awarded nearly $30 Million in need-based college tuition assistance to students who have given at least two years of service to golf as caddies, pro shop work, or course superintendent operations in Massachusetts.

The Ouimet Scholarship is unique in that it is renewable for up to four years. Ouimet awards range from $1,500 to $15,000 per year, depending on financial need and ranking in our competitive evaluation process. The value of the award over four years can be $10,000 to $40,000, or more. Over 5,200 young people have received Ouimet Scholarships, and many have gone on to prestigious positions of leadership in business and professional careers.
